[T:V] Heavy Wrecking ball

I have a question about the phyics for T:V. One thing that always pissed me off in T1/2 was that when i was a heavy skiing into an enemy base at a very high speed, an LD would just jet up and body block me and then mine disc my slow heavy ass. This also pissed me off. In real life, a very heavy mass moving at high speeds would plow right through that light and take little, if any, damage or course adjustment. Is there going to be anything like this in T:V? Can fast heavy still be blocked by a light with little or no damage taken by the light? Or are the phyics real enough so that the heavy will plow right thru him?

I only ask this becuase if my above question was true, wouldn't it be possible for a heavy to grapple onto something and doing an eburst arc towards the flag stand and clear the HOF and maybe one or two others just of his own mass so the capper could come in?

ofn to the max. They're using the F = m*a formula and spherical player hitboxes for realistic collisions.

Only if he gets right in front of you, and even then he'll get pushed back quite a bit (maybe damaged too). However, a little slant can throw you off route with only little harm done.

that's fine, as long as its realisitically done and there is a punishment/damage done. No more of these free mass-defying BBs by the lights.

:heart: of course ;)

it should be F = 1/2 (m * a) simply because it will be too damn hard to stop a heavy. wait, got another question, what happens if the heavy rams you if you have your buckler out? bounce back? same affect? vgd..

he puts a major dent in your buckler, turning it inside out and thus repelling you back instead
